Hey man don't roll the eyes! Considering the entire world wrote off BlackBerry as "going out of business or RIP RIM, and all that other noise" just over 2yrs ago their still here and lowering losses each quarter in significant amounts and now even highering employees again ... I'd say that is a phenomenal accomplishment.

91 million active monthly BBM subscribers up from 85 million last quarter is also a success. This device is nothing short of innovative design and execution now you know WHY BlackBerry won their patent lawsuit against ... what was that half assed company with some sebring star from a joke of a reality TV show again? Seacrest?

BB is surviving and back almost completely in the Black!

I'll be upgrading from my current Z30 to this bad boy!

BTW: it's "CamCorder FullHD 1080p @60 FPS" not 720 at 30 - especially since the sensor, lens and proccessor outguns the Z30 and I already can do 1080P @ 60FPS.

THUS: 1080p HD video recording at 60 fps

Also news of BlackBerry Blend for the BB Passport and BB Porsche Design P'9983 which both run on BB10.3 OS is nothing short of incredible.

For those that know BB is all about personal security and privacy. So for those that DON'T know and say oh yeah BB is late to the game with their virtual assistant I need to inform you the following:

1. BB Assistant is intelligent enough to know you and reply in kind
- You speak your command it will reply to you accordingly, with a voice.
- You type in your command it KNOWS and RESPECTS you want a little privacy and also reply's in kind; with text confirmation or executes the command silently!!
- The important thing is:
. BB Assistant has access, secure access to BOTH your secure BES10/12 secured content and your personal content (Work/Personal respectively).
>> Apple Siri nor Android's Google Now can do this with ANY secured corporate enclave.
NOT:
Samsung KNOX
Android KNOX being developed
MobileIron
Good Messaging (I tried this EVEN with iOS8 on Friday)
Trellia
or any other other 20+ corporate secure email, contacts, calendar, notes secure enclaves.

BB Assistant is using Wolfram Alpha data.
